Why is "card scanning" iOS only?

Open ammar-madni opened this issue 8 months ago • 2 comments

When looking at the docs I can see that when using the Android SDK directly card scanning can be enabled pretty easily. So I was just wondering what's preventing the scan card functionality from working on Android when using the stripe-react-native SDK?

Is this something planned for a future release? Are we waiting for some upstream changes to make this easier to implement for the react-native SDK?

HI @ammar-madni Appreciate the suggestion, as it seems like a reasonable request given there is support for it in the native Android SDK. We revisit our roadmap periodically and will keep this idea in mind.

It would be really interesting to have it on Android too, especially since it's supported by the Android SDK. Thanks @wooj-stripe !
